As Namibia celebrates 34 years of independence, the Kavango West is also celebrating 10 years since it was declared an independent region. 

The Namibian Defence Force (NDF) will be holding a parade as part of Namibia's 34th Independence Anniversary at Katima Mulilo, Zambezi Region.

In preparation for the parade, the public may observe the unfamiliar movement of soldiers and armoured vehicles from March 17–22.
